Technical Sales Representative
What do you do?
Thado helps producers in the sugar, baking, brewing and detergeant industries to select enzyme-based products to improve their performance.
Different enzymes are used for different tasks, depending on what chemical reaction they help. For example, enzymes are used in bread baking to ensure longer shelf-life, improve crumb structure, and to add volume. The detergeant industry uses enzymes to ensure cleanliness without using too many chemicals. The enzyme protease speeds up the break down of proteins to remove a gravy spill or a dirty collar whereas lipase speeds up the breakdown of fat, making it water soluble.
